I'm wondering what is the minimum we can describe in order to get a
nicely usable JSDL 1.0 spec is? I do not mind if there are distinctions
that we omit for 1.0 on the grounds of getting the spec done sooner
rather than later, but I'll merrily admit to not understanding all the
ramifications of the processor allocation models. Simple to describe and
simple to implement feel like key goals to aim for to me. :-)

In other words, let us finalize a version for 1.0 and then revisit the
area in more detail later on if it is warranted.
